Violet nodded. “Got it, Ivy and I will handle it. Don’t worly.”

Carissa pulled her down to sit as well. “There’s something else I need to tell you in advance, so you can prepare yourself.”

Violet plopped down next to her friend, raising an eyebrow. “Why so serious? You’re scaring me. What is it? Just spit it out!”

Prince Yuvan and his people will definitely be trying to find out whether she’s confessed anything or not. Anyone who’s had dealings with court officials won’t dare reach out to her.

Violet’s expression turned cold. “She won’t get a single word out of me. Don’t worry about me leaking anything. With her level of cunning, she couldn’t trick me if she tried.”

After a brief pause, she tilted her head. “Wait, are you asking me to pretend to be friendly and play along to fish information out of her?”

Carissa shook her head. “No, just treat her the same way you always have. Don’t change a thing. She’ll probably come with Lady Fiona, who’s sharp. If you so much as hint that you’re suspicious of Prince Yuvan, she’ll pick up on it.”

“That’s easy, then. Ever since Molly married Prince Yuvan, I haven’t given her the time of day. I’ll just keep doing that,” said Violet.

Carissa nodded in agreement. “Exactly. Don’t suddenly act all warm and friendly–that’ll obvious something’s up.”
